The truth is, the planet is in a poorer state than people realize, there are several issues mounting that are not being properly addressed at the individual, corporate and governmental levels. A brief list of challenges that we face now, or will face shortly; 1. Greenhouse gas emissions 2. Pollution of the oceans 3. Extinction of natural wildlife 4. The energy crisis 5. The increasing scarcity of many natural resources 6. Overpopulation (possibly a non-issue if the rest are resolved) In reality, everybody knows to some extent that their actions damage the environment or at least to some small part, make the future a little worse for everyone. However, people are selfish, they don't care about what makes the world better and hence the world continues along its current path towards oblivion. However, there are feasible solutions for all of the above, the only thing missing is the corporate or national will to achieve these. For example, here in the UK there was legislation passed to ban all combustion engine vehicles by 2040, which in my opinion is too little too late. Governments are taking handouts from the corporations (or sponsorships) which gives them favorable treatment. If the world were truly looking for a solution, fossil fuel based power plants and vehicles would be outlawed within a decade or two, and there would be hefty fees for polluting the oceans and environment. Unfortunately, that's not the world we live in
